From: "Human Potential & Development."
Split Justification: Development fundamentally involves both our inner landscape (**Internal World**) and our interaction with everything outside us (**External World**). (Ref: Subject-Object Distinction)..
2
From: "Internal World (The Self)"
Split Justification: The Internal World involves both mental processes (**Cognitive Sphere**) and physical experiences (**Somatic Sphere**). (Ref: Mind-Body Distinction)
3
From: "Cognitive Sphere"
Split Justification: Cognition operates via deliberate, logical steps (**Analytical Processing**) and faster, intuitive pattern-matching (**Intuitive/Associative Processing**). (Ref: Dual Process Theory)
4
From: "Analytical Processing"
Split Justification: Analytical thought engages distinct symbolic systems: abstract logic and mathematics (**Quantitative/Logical Reasoning**) versus structured language (**Linguistic/Verbal Reasoning**).
5
From: "Linguistic/Verbal Reasoning"
Split Justification: This dichotomy separates the receptive aspects of linguistic reasoning, involving the understanding and interpretation of spoken or written language, from the expressive aspects, which involve the formulation and production of spoken or written language. These are distinct, fundamental processes that together encompass all facets of verbal reasoning.
6
From: "Verbal Expression"
Split Justification: This dichotomy separates the construction of logically sound arguments (Structuring an Argument) from the use of stylistic and persuasive language to influence an audience (Rhetorical Technique).
7
From: "Structuring an Argument"
Split Justification: An argument's structure can be based on reasoning from general principles to a guaranteed specific conclusion (Deductive Structuring) or from specific observations to a probable generalization (Inductive Structuring).
8
From: "Deductive Structuring"
Split Justification: Deductive structuring inherently involves two distinct phases: first, laying out the foundational general premises or assumptions upon which the argument rests, and second, logically deriving the specific conclusion that necessarily follows from those established premises. This dichotomy separates the input conditions from the output consequence of a deductive argument.
9
From: "Establishing Premise Sets"
Split Justification: This dichotomy distinguishes between premises established through sensory experience, observation, or verifiable data (empirical) and those established through definitions, logical truths, axioms, or abstract principles (conceptual). Together, these two categories comprehensively cover the fundamental sources for establishing premises in deductive reasoning.
10
From: "Conceptual Premise Formation"
Split Justification: This dichotomy differentiates between two fundamental modes of forming conceptual premises. "Formation by Recognition" involves identifying, understanding, and adopting pre-existing, established concepts, definitions, or axiomatic principles as premises. "Formation by Generation" involves synthesizing new conceptual relationships, defining novel terms, or positing unique abstract truths specifically for the argument at hand. These two methods are mutually exclusive for any given premise and comprehensively cover all ways a conceptual premise can be established.
11
From: "Formation by Generation"
Split Justification: This dichotomy distinguishes between the intentional, controlled, and reasoned process of forming a new conceptual premise (deliberate) and the unbidden, emergent, or intuitive formation of a new conceptual premise (spontaneous). Together, these two modes cover all ways in which a concept can be generated for use as a premise.
12
From: "Spontaneous Generation"
Split Justification: This dichotomy separates the spontaneous generation of conceptual premises based on whether the primary impetus for their formation originates from internal cognitive states and processes (e.g., intuition, subconscious connections) or is triggered by an external stimulus, observation, or interaction.
